the way, updated

several people mentioned that the video that i cracked up watching in this previous entry was no longer available. all of a sudden "the way international" (aka the church in the video) hath copyrighted the video and demanded that it and all of the other (hilarious!) videos of similar "performances" (?) be taken off of youtube. BUT! here is a clip of that clip that ran on the soup. try not to tinkle!

edit: to see it in it's entirety visit the way's homepage. and before you get up in my business about being critical of this church they actually do have some very cult-like goings on happening there and i believe from all i've read they are also unorthodox.

Get all up in your busniess...haha...I posted the same video after I saw it on your blog...I got some "touchy subject" comments too haha...thanks for the research, because this video NEEDS to be seen!!! :)

i can vouch personally for the unorthodox-ness. "way-fers"- as we affectionately call them in my family- do not pray to Jesus. makes me sad :((don't worry, i am a far-removed survivor)btw... my dad actually knew the older lady that was dancing. creepy! i lol'ed at the soup.

they call themselves "believers" rather than christians, and they certainly do talk a lot about God, but they tend to leave Jesus out of a lot... to be honest it never really made sense to me so i just kinda ignored their belief system. i was more weirded out by the way the talked and acted, really. oh, not to mention that a few years ago the 'man in charged' was involved in a major sex scandal. haha, as you can see, i still have some major issues with the group. it's kind of "the elephant in the room" of our family- my uncle and his family are still in it...
